Bare Mineral's Bareskin Master Class

Let's get BARE, loves.  So natural, everyone will be wondering what you've done.  Ok.  I'm talking makeup.  Get that mind out of the gutter!  I was invited to have my makeup done by Melissa Davies with Bare Minerals for a Masterclass featuring the NEW BARESKIN liquid foundation.  It was a blast.  I learned a ton, met some great artists and got hooked on the foundation.  I made my first tutorial talking about the foundation & application.  Can you say nerve racking?  BARE with me while watching it... still a novice for sure.  Between lighting & having to re-watch myself get ready.  Oh boy.  Just watch it without judgement.  I beg of you! 

A couple great things about the foundation.  It has taken Bare 20+ years to come out with a liquid.  Saying that alone means that they have done a ton of research in perfecting the formula.  In the video I mention that it only has 17 or 18 ingredients.  Why does that matter?  If you like it natural, the less going on to your skin the better.  It's preservative & paraben free & also has a physical SPF 30 sunscreen for protection.  The brightening serum in the makeup is geared at giving you a lighter-brighter complexion.

True- Allover Radiance Color
Mineral Veil- Original
Bareskin Shade 7.0
Faux Tan Allover Face Color (Some people use warmth instead)
Handybuki brush
The NEW Bareskin Foundation Brush (front with well for you foundation)

The brush is a little different, but super smooth.  Your skin gets a little massage while you're putting the foundation on.  After you shake your foundation well, you drop it into the dip in the top of the brush.  I do feel like the texture of the brush is important because it has you use the least amount of makeup possible.  They are saying the bottle should last you around 6 months & it runs around $29.   That's only $5 a month.  If you are one of the hard to match skintones, there is a variety of colors so you will get your perfect match.

I broke up my video into 2 parts.  The first couple minutes is the foundation only, the second is mineral veil, faux tan, & blush. 

  

P.S. Next time I do a tutorial, I will remember to take a before and after picture to post with this!

Sheena's Favsies

POREfessional by Benefit 

1. First up is POREfessional. You know how you wish you could look younger? DONE. I have royally screwed up my pores from being terrible about washing my face at night. Let that be a lessen to you kids…wash your dirt. Basically what happens is, you put this on as a primer and it makes your face look like a baby's butt. A. Baby's. Butt. It minimizes pores and fine lines AND IT WORKS. 

Kat Von D Lock-it Tattoo Foundation

2. Lock-it Tattoo Foundation by Kat Von D is fa-freakin-tastic. It literally gives you a blank canvas to apply your make-up. I've never had coverage this amazing! You can literally cover a tattoo with this! So for all my homies back in cell block C with the teardrops..you're welcome. 

Big Sexy Hair Volumizing Dry Shampoo

3. Big Sexy Dry Shampoo is my partner in crime. She covers up all my lies about when was the last time I washed my hair. What I like about this specific dry shampoo is that it doesn't lave a white film and I can still get a brush through my hair after I use it. It also feel a lot lighter compared to the other products I have tried. For the love friends..PLEASE stay away from the dry shampoo powders. AND!!!! It is on Sale at ULTA right now for $9.99! 

The Originals (on The CW)

4. The Originals is a spin off from The Vampire Diaries. I. LOVE. THIS .SHOW. It has all the eye candy and fan girl moments that The Vampire Diaries had when it first started. There is nothing like a good bad boy and this show has a few that you love to hate. One day…I'm going to merry Marcel's teeth. Don't judge.

Crystal Lite + Sparkling Water

5. Listen… sometimes us Mormon girls need to feel fancy too. You guys!! This is seriously such a fun drink! All you need is a fancy glass, sparkling water, your Crystal Like Liquid of choice, and some frozen fruit. DONE. Now put the kids to bed, curl up with a book, your favorite show, and give yourself some momma time. That's right… M to the E time. It exists. I promise. It's located sometime within the hours of 10pm-5am. 

Outlaw Riding Boots by Breckelles

BONUS- These Outlaw Riding Boots by Breckelles are too good to be true! They are super comfy and come in tons of different colors! The best part is.. you can get them for as low as $26 shipped! I have them in Taupe and get compliments on them all the time! Mine were $34 shipped. Any riding boot under $40 is a steal to me! Go check them out on Amazon and see if they have your size and color. HURRY! Options are getting limited.

1. Dear Mr. Reedus!  If only:)  Next month I (& possibly Sheena) are headed to SLC Comicon to meet our favorite celebs from The Walking Dead!  Have you seen it?  It's definitely a must watch.  I'm so excited my current celeb crush will be heading the entire thing.  Stay tuned for more on Comicon.

Smart Water

3. What do I love about Smart Water? The electrolytes of course! It seriously is the best bottled water there is.

HD Invisible Cover Foundation by Make Up Forever 

4. HD Foundation by MUFE is super light with great coverage that creates an amazing blank canvas. It's just a great everyday use foundation. Check it.

Lipgloss by Bite Beauty

5. Bite lipgloss is highly pigmented and amazingly enough.. FDA certified. Yes, you can literally eat this lipgloss. But don't. That's weird. 

Anywho..  :)

It's also long wearing and contains Vitemin E that leaves your lips feeling silky smooth. AND it's not sticky! BONUS
